Down 15.5...almost half way!

  • Hi all,

    This is actually my first post on 3fc but I have been a lurker for awhile now = o) Definitely good motivation and very helpful!

    I have a history of being overweight in my family. I have always been very slim even after having two babies. After my 3rd (April 2009) I have been dealing with some depression, a job that requires me to sit all day, and stress! After eating horrible, not being active and drinking a ton of sodas I have got up to around 170. I finally decided it was time to do something about it!

    I started at 165 (when I decided it was time) and have lost 15.5 lbs in about 6 weeks. I am down to 149.5....hoping to get to 130ish. I gave up soda, have been eating a lot healthier & trying to work out as much as possible (even though it is hard with job and kids!). I can't see too much of a difference in my pics. I know I need to work on toning up along with losing but it's a start!!

    Thanks for listening and I hope I can help to motivate someone else.


  • Well done! You've made a lot of progress, and it definitely IS noticeable.

    I lurked for a long time, too, before my first post. Congrats on coming "out of hiding."
